again dividing the compressiventres into groups on the degree of com- 
pression! To pursue such a course it would seem is to bring on dis- 
traction. 
In the “Limnerinae” the customary neglect of the Foerster collection 
is manifest and as usual no reason is given for this procedure. Grant- 
ing that the Foerster collection of Campoplegini is still in existence our 
European colleagues could do a great service by consulting it and rec- 
onciling the species on which the genera without geno-types were based 
with the latest facts, to the end that Foerster’s genera without species 
would have species placed in them. It is greatly to be regretted that 
this latest classification still leaves us in the dark with reference to the 
genera of Foerster without a species. 
The zoogeographical arrangement of the species is convenient and 
helpful as in other parts done by Mr. Szepligeti. It were well if this 
arrangement were adhered to throughout the Genera Insectorum. 
For example the Chalcididae part would have been made useful had the 
species been divided into zoogeographical regions. 
Some corrections and changes are called for—to wit:—page II, 
Biolysa should read Biolysia; page 12, Canidia Holmgren is certainly 
preoccupied in the Coleoptera as correctly held by Ashmead; page 13, 
the genotype of Hyposoter is H. parorgyiae Viereck and of Horogenes 
the type is H. discoocellellae Viereck. Both of these genera may be 
distinguished from Casinaria by the shorter propodeum which hardly 
extends beyond the base of hind coxae and does certainly not surpass 
the basal third of the hind coxe; there are other differences, but this 
we hold to be the most important—hence we are opposed to Horogenes 
and Hyposoter as being synonymous with Casinaria. As the geno- 
types of Horogenes and Hyposoter were not published until 1910 they 
probably were not known to Szepligeti before he finished his paper; 
page 15, the genotype of Limneria Holmgren cannot be a species con- 
generic with Eulimneria Schmiedeknecht so the reviewer in order to 
make as little confusion as possible chooses (JIchneumon) Limneria 
longipes (Muller) Gravenhorst, Thomson, astype of Limneria; the type 
chosen for Olesicampe Foerster is Ichneumon longipes Muller, thus 
Limneria and Olesicampe are isogenotypic and Olesicampe becomes 
the name to be used in place of the preoccupied Limneria, making Lim- 
nerium unnecessary. Eulimneria is not congeneric with Olesicampe and 
should not be placed as synonymous with the same: page 21, as the 
genotype of Phaedroctonus Foerster is not included, its being a syno- 
nym of Nemeritis Holmgren is questioned; page 30, Tranosema is pre- 
occupied by the Tranosema (Foerster) Thomson, and therefore may 
be called Zatranosema new name; page 33, the synonymy being cor- 
rect Eriborus must replace Anilastus; page 38, Nythobia and Diadegma
